Tits as big as your head: Recording MnF Club and Other Tech Questions

[-J-]

Since it got asked in the FAQ and I know there have been folks who have not only taken screenshots but videos as well, I thought it'd be good to have a thread where less camera-shy folks could post some suggestions for how to make their screenshots and videos look good. I personally made a number of GIFs when I was running the official Twitter account, but my hardware expertise is lacking and I'd very much appreciate some help from the more tech-savvy members of the forum.

First, my software of choice:
- GIMP for screen captures and image editing
- Open Broadcaster Software for video capture
- VSDC for video editing

All free, all fairly easy to use.

Now my computer is far from a powerhouse, but here's an example of what I've been able to produce with it:



This is with a 2 GB GeForce GT 730 video card, Pentium G4400 Skylake dual-core processor, and 16 MB RAM. As I understand it, given that this is a Flash game with no exotic hardware-accelerated effects, MnF Club relies mostly on a strong CPU and RAM. The is especially apparent in high-pop areas such as the beach or Wild West, where performance can easily tank.

And that's all I've got for now. The one rule I ask is: Do not post other players' names in videos or screenshots without their permission -- which should either be posted or preferably within the image/video itself. Otherwise, feel free to post questions/comments/examples of your work!
